Quick Quote II -Quote posts instantly in your Quick Reply box
 

Hi,

This is not an update to my other Quick Qoute hack. The other hack is a stand alone feature which works with or without the Quick Reply box.. This one does not..

To use this hack you MUST already have the Quick Reply box hack installed.

What does it do? This hack will allow you to instantly quote any post or multiple posts in your Quick Reply Box.

How it works: In the upper righthand corner of each post will be a small "QuickQoute" checkbox.. When you click it the text from that post and the original poster's username will automatically be inserted into your Quick Reply box with quote tags around it.

Improvements over the other "Quote Selected" add-on:

• Works with all browsers
• You can quote multiple posts
• No need to highlight any text. Posts are quoted instantly.
• Includes original poster's username

Very easy to install.. 1 file edit, 1 template edit, and 1 template to add.

Works with vB versions 2.2.X and 2.3.X.

If you find this hack useful please click install. :)

Optional add-ons
If you would rather use an image button instead of a checkbox see this post by Oblivion Knight:

If you would like your browser to automatically scroll down to the quick reply box when the QuickQuote box is checked, see this post:

Also, thanks to Velocd for fixing the small empty space in the postbit. Hack instructions in the first post have been updated. :)

Instructions for those who have installed the "Quote Selected" add on and want to use both.

Will this code work with all quick reply boxes? Because as you know, i'm using a different one

Looks good though

It should, as long as the quick reply form name is "vbform" and the textarea name is "message".. If you still have the "Quote selected" add on installed be sure to use the instructions in my 3rd post.

I was thinking about removing the other one and just adding this as it seems a lot better.

Hopefully that shouldn't be too difficult, i'll let you know if anything goes wrong....shouldn't do, but you never know

Great.

/me installs right away.

Ok uninstalled the other one and changed the 'post' things back to 'vbform' so the smilies work again...Seems to work fine

Only problem i've found, is it wont quote from the first post in a thread...is this just an error on mine?

I'm guessing so b/c it works with all posts on my board.. Not sure why it would skip the first post. I'm using FireFly's Quick Reply hack btw.

mine werks :D another kool addon which i rekon i could do my self but if u wonted to try that wood b kool would be that wen a user clicks the check box they get send down to the QR box by using an anchor(bookmark)
